That's okay but I hope it means love and good luck. But love of child is also possible with  愛子 and that could be especially touching because of Mia's unfortunate experiences with the Coeurlclaw. For the "love of ____" meaning, you'd need to have the kanji the other way around =] 幸 (kou) can also mean happiness or blessing. Trivia: There are multiple ways you can read 愛幸: Aiko, Kanako, Chikako, Ayu, and many more. Whoever picked the name decides which version to use. This is also why a lot of Japanese needs to write down the hiragana version of their names when introducing themselves. Kudos for picking an interesting combination. I wasn't at all confident I had it right.  Japanese has to be the most complex and context driven language on the planet, maybe the universe. It's part of why I find it so fascinating.  English is so blunt most of the time. Carne armum ergo sum.
